Difficult strategy? The Queen's top white lotus, directly grasp

Nie Shuangshuang was sitting on the bed weakly. She smiled as she watched her come in and said, "Why are you here, sister? I have just woken up. Thanks to you, the harem has been able to be peaceful these days."

Lan Yinruo scratched her head a little embarrassedly, "Your Majesty, please don't be so polite. These are all my duties. This is the sweet-scented osmanthus soup I made. Please try it."

Nie Shuangshuang took it and put it directly into her mouth, not doubting whether there was any poison or not. She just drank it mouthful by mouthful, and then asked softly, "Has there been any major incident in the harem these days? It's really hard for you. It must be a lot of trouble to deal with it alone."

Lan Yinruo said sternly, "Your Majesty, a few nobles gathered together and talked nonsense. I heard it and got angry, so I punished them."

Nie Shuangshuang was surprised when she heard this, "Oh? What did they say to make my sister so angry?"

This punishment has always been severe.

"cough cough"

Lan Yinruo coughed twice and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please stop asking. I have already punished you. Your Majesty will be upset to hear it. Why bother?"

Nie Shuangshuang's eyes flickered, as if she had guessed something, and she smiled and said, "I was worrying too much. Since my sister has already given up, you can handle everything for me in the future."

Lan Yinruo's face changed immediately after hearing this. Her radiant face suddenly became gray and lifeless. She whispered, "Your Majesty, that's not what I meant. You are the master of the harem, and I have no intention of usurping the throne."

There was hurt in her eyes, but she clearly just wanted to help the Queen and had no bad intentions.

I didn't like the Queen before because I thought she was hypocritical, but now it seems that she is a truly kind and gentle person. Lan Yinruo admires her character very much, so she really wants to make friends with the Queen.

Although there has never been any sisterly love in the harem, she still doesn't want to become mortal enemies with the queen.

Nie Shuangshuang sighed as if relieved of a great burden, and continued to smile, her whole body seemed to be filled with the aura of the Virgin Mary, "My sister, this is not what I meant. It's just that I am weak now, and I want to ask you to help me deal with the things that can be handled in the palace."

She did not have a strong desire for power, let alone matters in the harem, which in many cases were matters between women and did not require her to take care of them personally.

Lan Yinruo has a strong and hot temper and her family background is one of the best, so it would be better if she could help take care of things.

Next, Nie Shuangshuang continued to use her power as the Holy Mother to chat with Lan Yinruo.

Lan Yinruo was, after all, a simple-minded and silly kid. After just a few rounds of trying, he told everything clearly without hiding anything.

"Your Highness, you don't know how gossipy those people are. They are not favored by the Emperor and have a lot to say."

"Especially Concubine Qi. She actually said that Your Majesty deliberately hired someone to plan this assassination and that it was you who blocked the knife for His Majesty. It was just that you were pretending to be nice. That was really unpleasant to hear."

"But she was smarter this time. She didn't make a fuss and ruin your reputation, but she secretly told her servants to spread gossip about you among the nobles."

At first, she didn't want to make Nie Shuangshuang sad. After all, there was no need to stimulate her when she just recovered from a serious illness. But she was a talkative person, and she had already completely accepted the queen, so she was more casual.

Nie Shuangshuang stared, no wonder Huian was not so angry when she mentioned Lan Yinruo just now, this girl is on her side now.

Is this a strong personality?

It's amazing!

"Thank you, Imperial Concubine, for protecting me in the harem these days. However, these sisters have only been in the palace for a short time. Your Majesty is not obsessed with beauty, so he has always ignored them. It is possible that they will feel resentful over time. I will just let them be!"

Nie Shuangshuang really doesn't care about these things, nor does she care about her reputation.

Those women care about their reputation only in order to marry a good husband and find a good in-law family.

Life was not easy for women in this era. Her parents' home was not her home, and her husband's home was not her home either. She did not want to make things difficult for them unless necessary, even though she was now the queen.

Lan Yinruo said bitterly, "The Queen is too kind. Although she has good morals, she would be too soft a persimmon in the palace and too easy to manipulate."

Nie Shuangshuang: “…”

Sorry, I was just pretending!

"Then my sister can just give them a small punishment, just to scare them, so that they won't become estranged because of these things."

Like Guanyin Bodhisattva, she does not show her emotions on her face. She never gets angry nor hysterical and always takes other people's feelings into consideration. At this moment, Lan Yin really cannot find any shortcomings of Nie Shuangshuang. In her eyes, this woman is simply perfect.

After saying a few more words, Lan Yinruo was in a hurry to return to the palace.

The moment her back disappeared, Hui An whispered, "Your Majesty, this imperial concubine seems to be a straightforward person, but I wonder if she has other intentions."

She was still a little worried. After all, everyone in the harem was extremely cunning. In order to protect her queen from being bullied, she would naturally have to put in more effort.

Nie Shuangshuang chuckled and said, "She is definitely not a shrewd person, and she can't do those things to curry favor with the powerful. She didn't like me before.

Even though I was the most favored queen in the palace, she still didn't treat me well, which was enough to show that she didn't have so many little thoughts. "

It's just that I'm straightforward and not good at being hypocritical, it's not a big problem.

Although it was a bit impatient and reckless, it was understandable.

"Your Majesty, please don't be so soft-hearted that you think everyone is a good person. In my opinion, you should not get too close to these people. It's really bad."

Hui'an felt that she had been worrying about these things, worrying about the Empress' safety and her mental health, which was really too tiring.

Nie Shuangshuang looked up at the gauze curtain on the bed with boredom.

The green gauze was like smoke, gently surrounding the sandalwood carved bed, as if it was a light and graceful cloud, isolating this small space from the outside world.

The bed curtains were embroidered with intricate peonies, with the petals outlined with gold thread, sparkling like flowers blooming in the spring breeze, gorgeous and tempting.

The corners of the tent are decorated with several strings of colored glaze bead curtains. As the breeze blows, the bead curtains sway gently, making a subtle and pleasant sound, like the sound of nature, which is refreshing.

Every inch of this place is supervised by Song Chuji personally. He is very attentive and uses the best materials. It is in no way inferior to Song Chuji's imperial study.

It is beautiful, but when the wind blows it makes a constant clanging sound, disturbing people's rest.

In the days that followed, Nie Shuangshuang could only lie in bed and would never get out of bed, because Hui'an and Song Chuji would never allow it.

Song Chuji even exempted her from paying her respects. Such favor was unprecedented.

Song Chuji didn't touch her at all these days, but he couldn't help but hold her in his arms to sleep at night.

Nie Shuangshuang felt very uncomfortable at first, but later she got used to it and was no longer so repulsive. However, there were constant rumors in the harem again.

Into the night

As night falls, the stars dot the deep sky, and a crescent moon hangs quietly in the sky.

The candlelight in Fengluan Palace had been extinguished. Only the moonlight outside the window shone through the gauze curtains, shining on the exquisite bed curtains, reflecting a faint silver halo.

There was no one else except the palace guards who were on night watch.

Song Chuji turned over and tiptoed into Nie Shuangshuang's dormitory through the window. There was a gleam in his eyes, which looked bright in the dark and very beautiful.

He was almost suffocated these past two days. He was a man with strong desires. How cruel it was for a normal, hot-blooded man to look at his beloved woman every day but not be able to eat her? ? !

He gently lifted the bed curtains and saw Nie Shuangshuang lying there quietly, her breathing steady and soft, as if all the troubles of the world had nothing to do with her.

He couldn't help but twist a strand of her hair around his fingers, full of ambiguity and flirtation.
